The oil pressure sensor or switch for the 3.5-liter engine in a 2013 Ford Taurus is situated on the passenger's side of the engine bay, right next to the fuel filter at the bottom of the block. Its job is to alert the driver when the oil level is low. This switch triggers a warning light on the driver's information display and acts as a safety feature in the car. If the Taurus is running low on oil, warning signs may include a lit "CEL" light, a burning odor, decreased engine performance, and overheating. To extend the lifespan of any vehicle, it's recommended to get regular oil flushes and filter replacements. The average cost to replace the oil pressure switch, including parts and labor, ranges from $90 to $110.
